I’ve never pretended to have any idea of what’s going on in Chico’s mind, and he certainly is his own donkey – an enigma wrapped in a woolly winter coat, wrapped in Welsh mud. It’s unsurprising that an attempt to put words in his mouth could only go amusingly awry…

“Paper? For me?

Are you teasing me?

I can win this… one quick lunge!

Got it! Ha! Snack time!

Destroy it! That’ll teach you, and your silly self-promoting ideas!

And take that! And that!

That’s one speech bubble properly burst.

So, what shall we do next? That was fun… Hang on – where are you going?

Come back! OK, OK, I’ll say it… Ahem, everyone: If you haven’t already please do transport yourselves here and consider supporting the Kickstarter effort. Apparently most campaigns that get to 50% go on to get to 100%, and we’re nearly at the 50% mark. If we don’t make it to 100%, we don’t get a penny (more about all of that here).

We can but hope… And post silly things online…

What’s that, Hannah? There’s a big pile of hay in it for me? Why didn’t you say?!”

What is this all about?

The seaside donkey is a tiny adventure writ large. Starting in May 2013 I headed off around Wales, with Chico the eccentric donkey for company. The 1000-mile perimeter of Wales took five-and-a-half months to walk, and the blogs on this website tell the tale. Now I'm writing a book and making a film, due out towards the end of 2014.
